Mystery Hobbies

That's right....Thompson C. Briephs is dead. D-E-A-D. The body of the flamboyant crossword editor was found under very suspicious circumstances--and now it's up to private investigator Rosco Polycrates to come up with some answers, with the help of the beautiful and brainy crossword editor from the victim's rival newspaper.
